From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 32: Delayed Release

In Luochen Cafe, after hearing Zhang Beichuan’s refusal, Yuta Ikeda stopped begging and left after saying a few words. Yuuki Fujimori, who was next to him, gave him a helpless look and followed Yuta Ikeda.

However, Zhang Beichuan didn’t leave because he still had to collect the original paintings in the afternoon, and he planned to eat lunch here by the way.

The coffee shop not only sells coffee, but also buys some desserts, cakes, etc. Of course, it is limited to pastries. However, after taking the menu handed over by Murayama Dayou, Zhang Beichuan couldn’t help but raise his brows when he saw the price above.

“This…this is too expensive!” Zhang Beichuan couldn’t help but complain.

“The materials of these cakes are very high-end, and it is normal to be expensive.” Murayama Daigogan laughed.

“That… that one, give me this blueberry pie!” Zhang Beichuan chose the cheapest pastry.

“Okay, wait a moment.” After Murayama finished speaking, he immediately informed him.

After a while, Murayama Dayou brought the blueberry pie. Zhang Beichuan tasted it. The taste was very good, but the portion was too small. Sure enough, he might as well go out and make some noodles to eat.

After eating, Zhang Beichuan went to checkout, only to find out that Yuta Ikeda had already settled the coffee, and Zhang Beichuan only needed to pay for the blueberry pie he ordered.

“The people are really good! It’s a pity that I really don’t have time right now.” After sighing, Zhang Beichuan got into the car and drove away from here carefully, at a very slow speed.

It’s not too late, Zhang Beichuan still took the test during the school holidays when he learned to drive, and he only drove during the test period, but the problem is that Zhang Beichuan doesn’t have his own car now, and the test time has passed by now. After two years, the technology is very unfamiliar, so naturally we have to be careful.

“Mr. Tanigawa’s address has been sent. Let me take a look. He lives near Mitaka Station, not too far.”

Zhang Beichuan felt a little at ease, this was the address of the original painting that Zhang Beichuan wanted to receive from the original artist.

Zhang Beichuan is most afraid of those who live not far or near. If they are far away, they can at least send couriers.

This is also one of the hard conditions for the production to be required to be able to drive. After all, many productions have to drive to collect the original paintings.

Zhang Beichuan drove to a block near Mitaka Station, then walked up to the address and knocked on the door.

After a while, a middle-aged man opened the door.

“You’re Mr. Tanigawa! I’m Zhang Beichuan from Musashino, and I’m here to get the original painting drawn by you.”

“Oh, hello, Mr. Zhang Beichuan, please come in.” Tanigawa Takayu brought Zhang Beichuan in.

The house is very messy, filled with a lot of pungent odors, and garbage such as garbage instant noodle buckets can be seen everywhere.

Tanigawa Takayu smiled awkwardly: “Sorry, I live alone, so it looks a bit messy.”

“it does not matter.”

“I remembered before that the person in charge of collecting the original paintings was Mr. Ochiai, right?”

“Yes, Mr. Ochiai is my senior, but he is in charge of other things.”

“Oh, please wait a moment for the original painting, I will bring it over immediately.” Tanigawa Takayu said, and went to the studio to fetch the original painting.

“Here, this is the original painting of the 57th card and the original painting of the 70th card in the fourth episode. As for the 83rd card, I haven’t finished painting it, but it’s almost done. Can I delay your time for half an hour? I expect It should be almost complete in half an hour,” Tanigawa said.

Zhang Beichuan took the original painting in his hand and said with a smile, “Okay, please, Mr. Tanigawa.”

“Mr. Tanigawa, have you always drawn original paintings?” Zhang Beichuan asked curiously while checking the original paintings he had just handed in.

“Well, I’ve been an original artist for more than 20 years. I’ve been doing it since I was young, and it’s been until now.” Tanigawa said as he painted.

“However, after so many years of painting, I’ve only been able to make ends meet,” his voice was a little bitter.

Zhang Beichuan saw his movements from the corner of his eye, and he could see that Tanigawa Takayu already had thick calluses on his hands. This was evidence of holding the paintbrush for a long time. The speed was average, neither fast nor slow, and it could be seen that he was very experienced.

But Zhang Beichuan has no choice. It is normal for painters to have low wages and many jobs.

“Okay, the painting is over, you can take a look.” About half an hour later, Tanigawa Takayuki had finished painting, and Zhang Beichuan had also checked it out. There was no mistake, he nodded and bowed: “Mr. Tanigawa, I have already received the original painting. It’s over, I won’t bother you anymore.”

“OK.”

…

After Yuta Ikeda returned to the company, before her **** was warm, she immediately contacted Mr. Kema.

Guima, this is a pseudonym, is the current teacher of Sifang Library at the column level, and is also the only first-line light novel author of Sifang Library.

Sifang Library is different from Dengeki, Kadokawa, and Fujimi in terms of influence. Each of these three major libraries has many first-line authors, and animation works alone account for a considerable proportion of animation every year.

But Sifang Library only has Mr. Guima, a first-line light novel author, and naturally he cherishes it very much.

And now, Mr. Guima’s new work “The World God Knows” is about to be released, but the illustration has not yet been finalized. How can this not make him anxious? Ikeda Yuta has clearly recommended several of him, and many of them are very popular and of high quality. The illustrator, Mr. Guima has been hesitant.

Until a few days ago, Mr. Guima suddenly called him. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com clearly specified that he wanted Mr. Beichuan to be the illustrator, which prompted him to ask Zhang Beichuan to come out, but unfortunately Zhang Beichuan came out. Beichuan clearly refused.

Dudu.

The phone rang for a while before being connected.

“Hey.”

“Is it Kema-sensei? I’m Yuta Ikeda, the editor-in-chief of Sifang Library.”

“Editor-in-chief Ikeda? Is there something wrong?” The voice was a little dull.

“I want to talk to you about the illustration of your new work.”

The voice on the phone suddenly changed, a little excited: “Editor-in-chief Ikeda, have you invited Mr. Beichuan to draw an illustration?”

“Teacher Guima is very sorry, because Mr. Beichuan is busy with work and has not enough time, so he refused to draw illustrations for your new work, but it doesn’t matter, we are contacting other illustrators to ensure the quality of the illustrations.” Yuta Ikeda said.

“Editor-in-chief Ikeda, is there really no way? I really hope Mr. Kitagawa will be the illustrator.”

Yuta Ikeda wiped his sweat: “I told Mr. Beichuan many times, but he clearly told me that he really didn’t have time.”

The phone suddenly went silent, and after a while, he said, “Editor-in-chief Ikeda, you said Mr. Beichuan didn’t have time, instead of rejecting it, right?”

“Yes, what’s wrong?”

“Editor-in-chief Ikeda, “The World God Knows” probably hasn’t been promoted yet!”

Ikeda Yuta was a little puzzled, but still said truthfully: “Yes, the news of your new work is just a shadow, just said it on the official website of Sifang Bunko, the specific promotion has not yet been launched, but we will promote it soon. Yes, please be patient.”

“That’s great, don’t promote it yet, Editor-in-Chief Ikeda, I want to delay the release of the new book!”
